Stagecoach: "Our thoughts are with the woman involved"

Andy Campbell, managing director of Stagecoach East, said: “At approximately 8.30am today, one of our single-decker vehicles was involved in an incident on Regent Street when a woman walked out on a crossing after the pedestrian light had turned red.

“The bus driver immediately stopped her vehicle following the incident and remained at the scene until the police told her to proceed on her route. Safety is our absolute priority and our drivers are extremely professional and highly vigilant of the safety of passengers, pedestrians and cyclists.

“Our first thoughts are for the welfare of the woman involved, who was taken to Addenbrookes hospital to be treated for minor injuries. We are currently assisting the police with their inquiries.”

More concerns over 'danger crossing' and now cyclists' after woman hit by bus

Alessandra, who works at a shop near the crossing, said: “I think it’s dangerous for cyclists and pedestrians. As a cyclist, it’s a very difficult junction to navigate, especially at night.

“As a pedestrian, it doesn’t work because there aren’t proper signals telling you when it’s safe to walk. And cyclists are really haphazard and just do what they like on it.”

Shop worker slams 'danger crossing' after woman hit by bus

Gary, who works in a shop opposite the crossing where the accident happened, said: “That junction is ridiculous, it’s badly designed.

“I sit here every day and see things happen. Even after the accident this morning there were three cyclists who just came out during a red light.

“The other day, a cyclist flew out with his headphones on an a motorcyclist actually came off his bike. The cyclist didn’t even stop.

“I think the design of the crossing is bad and it’s made worse by the boards that are up at the moment around the hotel.

“It needs to change but I don’t expect it will, especially as there are so many cyclists in Cambridge.”
